I know. Wasn’t it suggested that 343 put that in the PM page to make it more clear a while ago ?
It’s a good future to prevent spoilers but they should put it automatically on Receive All

I know I made a topic on it a few months after Halo 4 came out (when Halo Support was still Halo Waypoint). Fell of deaf ears I guess. I’m considering making another topic soon

MK8. I want a second opinion not from a reviewer.
@Moa- You reminded me of that, which reminded why I never got a response from a user I was trying to help. They could at least put up a notification saying whether or not the user you are trying to PM has restrictive PM settings.

Indeed. I think I may save Watchdogs for later tonight and try Mario Kart 8 fisrt. It’s been a while since I have touched my Wii U.
As for your situation above, both sound pretty bad. I can’t believe Microsoft has the audacity to treat their customers so poorly. I hope you can find a way to resolve your situation.

I can believe it. Where Microsoft is a strictly western market dealer, they tell everyone else to basically -Yoink- off because they aren’t part of the western market where they make all their money. They are Microsoft, they can do that. If they wanted to develop every single X1 with a bologna sandwich inside that destorys the system in 3 days, they could because they have the money.
Thanks. I trust Nintendo World Reports reviews more and since they got a ton of flak for the MK8 review, I just want to see how it compares to other’s thoughts
So I just completed three 50cc Grand Prix races and faced off against my brother in Mario Kart 8. I have to say, the game is really fun. The game in HD looks phenomenal and I love the new replay features. The new items are also interesting and really mix up the gameplay in a good way. I also like the new racetracks they added and the old ones also look really good in HD. Overall, it still plays like other mario kart games, but the new additions are awesome! (although, I still haven’t tried rainbow road :P)

No, I can’t. Can’t see it on your Service Record either. I assume it’s just a Waypoint glitch, as the same thing happened to me as well. It happened after I changed it, and it came back after I changed it back.
